neuroon

Neuroon is the name of a technology company and its consumer device, a wireless EEG headband marketed for personal neuroscience use. The Neuroon device was designed to monitor brain activity in real time and to support activities such as sleep tracking, meditation training, and lucid-dreaming assistance. It combined sensors placed on the forehead with a Bluetooth connection to a companion mobile app, where data was analyzed to infer states such as relaxation, focus, and various sleep stages. The software offered dashboards with sleep history, guided meditation content, and feedback tailored to the user’s brain activity. A notable feature was the planned use of light or audio cues to influence dreaming and relaxation during sleep.

The product emerged in the 2010s as part of the early wave of consumer neurotechnology. Coverage described Neuroon as an ambitious attempt to bring neuroscience-style sensing to a wearable format and to democratize access to brain data outside of laboratories. It faced the typical challenges associated with first-generation EEG wearables, including sensor reliability, comfort, and the interpretation of complex brain signals for everyday users. Production and funding hurdles led to only partial public visibility, and updates about the device and company became sporadic over time.

Today, Neuroon is remembered as an early entry in the field of consumer EEG wearables. It is cited in discussions of the evolution of personal brain-computer interfaces and the broader trajectory of neurotechnology wearables, which have since produced a range of sleep trackers and meditation aids. The current status of the Neuroon brand and its original product appears to be inactive.
